Jeez.

There's like a billion pictures on that page. Is there any way to use thumbnail pictures on a blog like that? It appears as though anyone that goes to that page is going to get all of your full-res images downloaded to their computer.

Took too long to load so i X'ed out. Try to split them up onto diffent pages.

Way to many pictures.

I suggest you be very selective and choose your best shots and then have a link that say for example reads...TO SEE MORE CLICK...and that's where you have a separate single blog entry with that entire gallery per say.

Or you set up a FLICKR or some sort of gallery to host the pics.

Its taking to long on my PC and I'm not about to wait for all those images. Not being rude, just saying, it was slowing everything else down.

The design looked nice and simple, just like I like it. The three pictures that I saw looked nice. Like the others, the page took too long to load, so I closed it.

Ok, I changed it.

Can somebody check it out please?

Thanks for paginating your blog a little. It's a lot faster to load for sure. :)

Design: good. Really simple, which I like. The white background looks nice. Did you consider black? A lot of times photos look better against black (lightroom). My personal blog is on white too though.

Photos: Pretty good stuff. I do think you need to check your white balance if you haven't already. A lot of the low light shots look yellow to me. Disregard if this is an intentional WB interpretation. I also found some of your photos to be a bit cluttered. I wanted you to fill the frame a little more with your subject. I know it's difficult sometimes when you are shooting mostly a photo-journalistic style.

Overall your blog was a good experience for me.
